Subject: hw-breakpoints: cleanup HW Breakpoint registers before kexec
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=17f557e5b5d43a2af66c969f6560ac7105020672;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

hw-breakpoints: cleanup HW Breakpoint registers before kexec

This patch disables Hardware breakpoints before doing a 'kexec' on the machine
so that the cpu doesn't keep debug registers values which would be out of
sync for the new image.
